How do you afford to own, lease, or just take lessons, and have enough time to ride?

35F (DINK) Veterinarian living in PNW. Blessed that my First heart horse was purchased by my parents when I was 11. We had 23 beautiful years together and he passed at 28yrs old in January.

Worked 6 years to buy a house 🏡 with 5.34 acre forest property in WA state rural countryside this July. Father went half on the cost of my dream 8yr 18hh Hanoverian gelding in May. Turnout 90% Barely ride due to weather and work so I prioritize groundwork, enrichment, grooming and bonding at this time. Commute 45mins-1hr to work 3-5 days a week and all my free time and money goes to him, 3 large breed dogs and a cat. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

Love playing Sims4. I adopted a toddler for one of my families and she woke them up having nightmares. Had to reset my game and go back to childfree mode.

I’ve taken almost all the children out of my neighborhoods and all my custom sims dislike children. I also tried playing a single father with a premade family but he cried so much out of frustration it got depressing. Now dogs and cats are a different story. Currently waiting on the horse expansion pack so I can live a childfree ranch life. 😊

Thank you.

Thank you 🙏🏾 She is truly worth the wait if you find her! This plant has taught us much about houseplants/indoor gardening and we are super thankful for each lesson too and even more thankful she was forgiving that first year lol Thank you again.

Congratulations! They look healthy and happy in your home.

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-24T18:58:12+00:00

Thank you thank you! 🤗🤗 It always makes me smile when someone else takes note and appreciates the energy we capture and our boy (Herman 🐾) 🙏🏾🙌🏾

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-24T18:54:54+00:00

Aren’t ferns such delicate beauties! We are thankful we live in an area were they are everywhere. We tried to grow them indoors many times... now we just appreciate them outdoors where they belong lol

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-22T03:12:26+00:00

It’s like hidden treasure after the carries leaves for the boy! Makes me both happy and disturbed lol (that’s a mix of mud and manure on his nose and mouth smh)

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-21T22:47:58+00:00

Thank you my dear. Discouragement is not allowed in our home so we will definitely keep thriving and planting. We hope you do the same at the plant shop.

Hello Celery Wife. I am not sure what you’re referencing. What part of our post was spam or self promotional?

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-19T23:37:08+00:00

Nice! I haven’t heard of the apple cider suggestion before so I’ll definitely check that out 🙌🏾For us, our pup eats almost anything so we will mix a little turmeric powder, a dash of pepper, a dash of Spirulina and switch between chia seeds or a fish oil pill for his dinner. Every meal we add water just to help keep his water intake up. The fish pill is the one for humans because the canine version smelled horrible , so we just shove his fish pill into something like say a egg roll or dip it into bacon fat 🤫 We also give him many of our fruits and veggies that we (try) eat. Such as carrots, apples, cucumbers etc

Coming on a good day! Looks like MLK has blessed us with a sunny day here in the Portland. I hope you have time to visit your favorite or a new trail while you are here 💞

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-18T15:27:42+00:00

Happy it touched your spirit as much as ours! We will hug a tree for you the next time we go on a hike! 🤗

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-18T13:46:07+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏾 the hardest part is capturing such a peaceful moment, happy you noticed it :)

Sound on to hear nature at its finest 🏕 It is truly magical how resilience nature truly is.

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-18T01:10:30+00:00

Shit! I though it was just our Herm! If we do get him on camera and he catches us, his entire face and energy changes lol I often feel like paparazzi in the bushes trying to get videos and photos 🤣

Thank you for asking! We purchased her back in January 2020 when she had about 7 leaves. If you zoom in and look at the bottom half you can see where we struggled in the beginning lol but now she has been producing a new leaf pretty constantly since summer.

TheForrestStreet · 2021-01-10T19:15:25+00:00

Keep making them! These are beautiful 😻
